Festive Cranberry Crostini
Ingredients
1 baguette, sliced into 2-inch thick slices
2 tablespoons olive oil
sea salt
12 oz fresh cranberries
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
4 tablespoons Sweet Mango Chutney or Spicy Mango Chutney
10 oz brie or triple cream (or substitute with goat cheese, cream cheese, or ricotta), at room temperature
Method
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Brush both sides of each baguette slices lightly with olive oil and arrange them in a single layer on a baking sheet. Sprinkle a pinch of salt over the slices. Toast in the oven for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown on both sides. Set aside to cool.
In a saucepan, combine cranberries, sugar, water, and mango chutney. Simmer over medium heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and the cranberries burst. Once ready, remove from heat.
Spread a generous layer of soft cheese on each toast, top with the cranberry sauce, and finish with a sprinkle of fresh rosemary. Serve and enjoy!
